In 1947 Mikhail Kalashnikov, the legendary Russian gun designer, created the AK-47 assault rifle. Eventually adapted by the Red Army in 1949, it became famous as the People's Rifle. Such renown was well deserved, as it was an utterly reliable weapon. It was rugged, simple to operate and maintain, economical and effective at reasonable ranges. This weapon, and all it represents became the inspiration for Cold Steel's heavy-duty tactical knife, the Cold Steel AK-47 Knife. Designed by Andrew Demko, the AK-47's possess all of the attributes of their namesake, and perhaps a few more.

AUS 8A Stainless Steel blade

Blade coated with black Teflon for corrosion resistance and to enhance cutting power and to improve edge retention

State of the art Tri-Ad lock

G-10 grip

Pommel made from 6061 Aluminum

Pommel doubles as a less than lethal percussion tool in a self-defense situation

Ambidextrous pocket clip

Patented thumb plate for drawing and quickly opening the knife by snagging it on the edge of a pocket; it can also be used like a conventional thumb stud or disc for easy, one-handed opening
